Christmas Drinks

 

This was the outfit I wore out for Christmas drinks with my flatmates.

I bought the knotted, flared legged jumpsuit on the Boohoo Black Friday Sales (who says clothes have to be expensive?). I absolutely love this item of clothing as the material is stretchy and allows for comfort when you are out and about. It can be dressed for both casual and smart occasions, depending on what you pair it with. As you can see from the photos, I was wearing this for a more casual evening out, so paired it with my floral old-skool vans and some of my favourite jewellery to make my outfit more personal. I always find wearing your favourite jewellery or accessories with a seemingly plain outfit helps to liven up your clothing choices nicely.

I chose to tie my hair in a partial space-bun so it was out of my face, saving me tucking it behind my ear every five minutes for the entire evening! This look is a slightly messier style but matches well with casual clothing. It shows off your makeup well as it keeps your hair from falling in your face and shadowing any makeup you may have already put on. I love this look as it is a bit different to how I normally style my hair and I believe a slight change can always benefit an outfit.

Lastly, my makeup choices for the evening were extremely subtle as I was only going for a casual night out at the pub. I chose to shape my eyebrows with my powder palette, which is an absolute essential for myself as without it my eyebrows are non-existent they are so blonde! I used mascara to make my eyelashes both visible and longer and finished my look with my favourite lipstick – Koko K by Kylie. This lipstick is my go-to makeup product as it is an extremely natural colour for my skin tone, only adding a slight hint of pink, and stays on for hours despite eating or drinking. I cannot recommend this lipstick enough.

I loved my outfit for the night as I felt extremely comfortable in what I was wearing, yet still felt like I looked the part. Wearing something you feel good in is an important part of getting an outfit right, as there is no point in wearing clothing that you don’t feel 100% comfortable in. In my opinion, finding something I think I look nice in but also feel secure in is a top priority.
